I'm on Roadrunner, and they've been incredibly reliable, as well as
having 2.5Mb download speeds.  Roadrunner totally blows Cox out of the
water in their service reliability and that they don't shut down
assorted ports.

Broadband VoIP would indeed help in the convergence of voice and data
technology but are they reliable? I mean you are dependent on your ISP
for your voice calls. What happenes when you have an outage? 
Also I heard that COX might enter VoIP service for residential areas
soon.
